A change in the Company's name to Integral Vision, Inc., was approved. The Company expects to begin trading on the Nasdaq National Market System (NMS) as Integral Vision (INVI) on July 1, 1999.

"Following the sale, the Company will be nearly debt free and will concentrate exclusively on the development and sale of machine vision products," Mr. Drake told the shareholders at the meeting. "We have a very strong technology with our patented VisionBlox® software and our new distribution alliances are bringing us outstanding opportunities for both the sale of software and for applications based on VisionBlox." Mr. Drake concluded by telling the stockholders that "Integral Vision right now has numerous opportunities for success. Capitalizing on those opportunities is in our hands and we believe we have the people and resources to get the job done."

The shareholders also approved a stock option plan and re-elected the Board of Directors.
